DAD: Data Quality Assessment
The system allows measuring data completeness of every project. Projects with a score of 100% have full information provided; projects with lower project score are missing information and need attention (requiring follow-up with information providers). Project data completeness analysis can also be generated with charts, maps, and reports. Copyright © 2011 Synergy International Systems Inc. ALL RIGHTS RESERVED
